The article starts off with the tantalizing "sandals and ponytail set" comments, but that's a red herring. The heart of the article is a real inability of techies to think outside of tech. I've seen this same situation many times while consulting: <quote> "I blame the IT community, I blame the IT leadership, over and over and over again, about their inability to articulate correctly the business opportunity that we've got here," Quinn said. (I blame [the IT department]) for not understanding what it is that they do, for spending too much time talking and thinking in technology terms, and not thinking in terms of business," he said. </quote>
